Art History Class: Art Nouveau

One of my creative goals is to further my art education.  I am working on a World Art History certificate. I attended a lecture called "Art Nouveau: New Style for a New Century".  This form of art is noted for its organic, sinuous, and seductive styles which centered in France at the very turn of the last century.  This art movement can be found in paintings, jewelry, furniture, and buildings. Below are pictures from the lecture.  I also found online an art nouveau stain glass template that I colored in with color pencil (coloring is a great stress reliever). ~ JM
